Never quit the trail just because you’re uncomfortable. You never know what you’ll have missed.
Spring Hiking
After turning back before summiting Sandwich Mountain, I returned half a year later, for a hike that didn’t disappoint.
After a 20 year hiatus, I finally step foot again on Chocorua. Worth every minute, I enjoyed a quite easy trail, even if it’s still very muddy out.
Spring hiking bears the risk of a very muddy trail, but perseverance pays off. In this case, with abundant flora, and great views from the summit.
An easier 4,000 footer, with surprising views of nearby mountains, and abundant spring wildflowers along the trail.
Hiking Wildcat is odd, in that it should feel harder than it is. And yet, it’s a fine day out. Even in the snow.
It was a bluebird day, so why not hike an old friend? Mt Monadnock was in fine shape, and the views were stellar!
Mud season put the kibosh on plans to hike elsewhere, so I hiked up to the fire tower on Red Hill in Moultonborough, NH
It was a long, challenging hike, but rewarding, and with great views of nearby mountains.
The Osceolas are at once a relatively short hike, but very steep and strenuous. Yet they have some of the best views in the Whites.
